Thanks David!
Didn't think there was a manual, but you never know (sure would be nice
to have the Dr. Matt material on line again!). I will look into the
code at manilaSuite.hosting.createSiteForm and also reconsider on
whether I should create the website and schedule a task.
Is there any other approach that anybody can think of?
Regardless, I will post full updates to developer.e-xact.com and
summaries here and at rolandtanglao.com.
Cheers!
